The litronics and clear tails

definately make a big difference. Are those 18's on it originally? I have the same wheels on my car currently...I would swap to the 19" carrera's like you have now if I could afford them and put up with the ride quality...they look really nice.

This is what the Dangermobile first looked like (minus the new aftermarket wheels). My first mod I might add !

I knew someone was going to ask that question. Those were the original Sportec mono 10 ultralight one piece forged wheels. At the time they were very exclusive and expensive wheels. I kick myself for ever parting with them .

Sorry, I have no plans for a hard-top . And, since the soft top is in pristine condition, there won't be any changes there either. Besides, if whomever is behind me doesn't like my rear window, I just push the button that activates the oil slick and tacks .
